WASHINGTON, June 23 (Xinhua) -- LeBron James' agent Rich Paul said on Thursday that the star player will not take part in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games, according to an Associated Press report.
James, 31, was named MVP of the NBA Finals after leading the Cavs past the Golden State, ending Cleveland's 52-year championship drought.
James is the latest big name to withdraw from the American team, joining Stephen Curry, Russell Westbrook, Chris Paul, James Harden and others.
BEIJING vans old skool rosa offerte , March 6 (Xinhua) -- While China's policymakers have reined in their growth expectations for this year, a glass-maker in the southwest of the country is running its assembly lines at maximum speed.
With technicians and machines operating at full capacity, there are no signs of any economic slowdown in workshops of Zisun Technology.
The Chongqing manufacturer has even started to worry that it may not be able to meet demand as orders keep flying in. In contrast with Zisun, many other Chinese glass companies can barely keep their heads above water in an industry long beset by overcapacity.
Ruan Wei, deputy general manager of Zisun vans old skool rosa , believes the secret lies in applying technology to a sophisticated market demand. For example, Zisun products include a glass microfiber filter that can block 99.99 percent of particulate matter with a diameter greater than 0.3 micron.
"Our technology can match or surpass anything the world's leading companies offer. We already control the lion's share of the domestic market and we just cannot keep pace with orders," said Ruan.
Zisun is the epitome of the innovation-driven growth companies, which carry much of China's hopes for propping up a decelerating economy.
On Sunday China set its 2017 GDP growth target at "around 6.5 percent," the lowest in a quarter of a century vans old skool grigie offerte , at the annual parliamentary session, not much lower than last year's range of 6.5 percent to 7 percent.
Economists said the move indicates more energy will be channelled into reform -- good news for companies like Zisun -- instead of chasing earth-shattering GDP figures.
"Given external uncertainties, the new target is pragmatic and in line with current conditions and leaves room for reform," said Chi Fulin, director of the China Institute for Reform and Development.
Supply-side structural reform was highlighted in the government work report vans old skool grigie , with plans to cut steel and coal capacity, digest unsold homes, bring down corporate leverage, relieve business burdens and fix weak economic links.
Efforts will cover on a variety of areas, including cutting red tape vans old skool bianche offerte , tax reductions and relaxed control of market access.
Policymakers have demonstrated the tolerance to the economic slowdown, Robin Xing, chief China economist with Morgan Stanley, said. "A lower target will help wean the country off reliance on investment-drive growth, curb capital flows to old industrial sectors and eliminate outdated capacity."
China's growth model during the past decade has resulted in serious overcapacity and accumulating
